Workouts for next week

Posted: 29th March 2008 by trboh in Daily Blog

Here is what Dave is saying about what we are going to do to change things now that I am feeling better and back on track again with my workouts.

“For the workouts this week, I want you to go back to the weights I have listed, but take whatever rest you feel you need. You have become very proficient at listening to you body, so if you need to extend the rest periods, go ahead and document the change for me. Take whatever rest you feel you need, but keep the weights up.”

I think this approach will really help. I get very flustrated when I have trouble keeping to the predetermined rest periods. I have removed reference to target rest period on my workout sheet and I am going to just record what really happens. I think I will also do another week of heartrate tracking.

Dave also changed the order of workouts a bit. He has put my Turkish Get Up/Snatch routine on Wednesdays. He might be changing things around to fit in with my Advance Kettlebell Class and Weight/Strength training class I am starting. It does not really matter. I know there is a method to his madness. I am paying him to figure all this out for me so I am not going to spend all day trying to figure out the “why” of everything he has me do. I am just going to do it.
